| @lileisabel | Marquez de Arcos Literary Café [en/es] | Cuba |
As I approached the entrance, my suspicions were confirmed; on the left, a sign proclaimed "Café Literario Marqués de Arcos." On the right, a plaque revealed that I was in front of the House of Poetry, adorned with a fragment of a poem by Eliseo Diego. An irresistible call to contemplation. If you want to enjoy an exquisite coffee and a moment of peace in an inspiring setting, you only have to go to Mercaderes Street, between San Ignacio and San Juan de Dios.

| @titisnariyah | Simple and Modern Designs of Ukhuwah Islamiyah Mosque | Indonesia |
The supporting pillars on the second floor are covered with full black ceramic tiles, while the plain white ceiling matches the fans installed at several points. Another detail that I mentioned is the white carvings that blend in with the color of the ceiling. It is a bit unfortunate because the color is too similar, so the luxurious impression and beautiful details of the carvings are not visible. While on the side there is a curved window with a bright white frame.

| @armasdiaze | Central Station Shopping Center | Venezuela |
This is its rear part. I love the shape of the columns and its windows. It is unusual to see a shopping center with this design, which I really liked. It has a tropical atmosphere with the ornamentation that these beautiful palms have. This is part of their ornamentation and has the particularity that they chose to do it with palms, creating a beautiful tropical environmental design. I love these plants, as well as the design of the floor looks like the one they use in some squares or promenades.
